Low Fat Lasagna. I didn't spell that right. Low fat ground turkey low fat or fat free rigotta cheese tomato sauce fat free mozz microwave or oven till hot yum that is right no noodles.

Well it has been 21 days and I'm only down 7 pounds. I'm hungry all the time and not for nothing but can eat anything. I've eaten everything even had mushy pasta that I chewed till it was paste and still no restricted feeling. Told my case manager. All ayone says is "You have to wait 6 to 8 weeks after surgery to get a fill. I shoud be back up to 222 pounds by then. My famiy is being very supportive and my kids keep telling me "Mommy your doing great we are so proud of you." I guess me telling them I wanted to have this surgery because I didn't want to b the fattest Mom in the room all the time. Helps them help me.Thank God my daughter alsways says "We love you Mommy cause your mushy!" No matter what that coming from a kid makes you smile.:scared2:

Started on this journey alone thinking no one would be supportive. I never get support on anything I do. Also I never do anything for myself ever. So when I finally told my husband I'm researching lapband surgery, I want to do it and we have very favorable insurance for lapbanding surgery. I was shocked when he said "If it will make you happy and it is something you want to do, go ahead." So I kept going. Went for all the tests, got my PCP to write a letter for me to my insurance company. Thougt for sure they were going to tell me I was too healthy. No high blood pressure, diabetes, no sleep apnea. My insurance company got all my paprwork on Tuesday and Friday my doctor called to tell me I was approved. He said I thought for sure they would deny you once but because of your Mother's medical background they approved you. Plus I was only 37.5 BMI and 45 years old. My insurance told me because of my Mother's medical background and my PCPs letter to them I was approved. I arranged to have surgery 1/21/09. http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wpvTAev/"> >

Thanks I hope I get a fill sooner tan later. I did this because I don't want to be hungry all the time. I hadthe surgery and I'm hungry all the time. I'm doing pureed foods right now. I wanted a piece of bagel so bad the other day I toasted half slice that into two pieces and toasted it again. So it was crunchy not doughy. Ionly took two bites, it did the job got the taste and was full, I was also too afraid to have it get stuck. Thank God my daughter ate the rest.

I see my surgeon on Friday. Do you think I will get a fill that day or is it just a look at the incisions? I'm down to 212:thumbup:

Hi I'm from NJ had Dr Goldstein came home same day. Feeling great. Drinking liquids and ice pops sugar free jello. As of thursday I started on pureed foods. No problems there. I'm loving the new V8 vegetable pureed soups. I've lost 9 pounds to date. How is everyone else doing? I'm hungry thou any one else?
